Website Building

For most people, a website is just a website.  But there are many different types of websites.  HTML, Blogs, Joomla, Dupral, just to name a few.  Most people have either a HTML website or a Blog website.  Blog websites have become much more easier to use and make changes to for the less technical person.  They offer great flexibility, control, SEO options, and more.  If you don’t have a website at all, I recommend using this platform instead of a HTML design.  We will go over getting a blog website up and running as well as setting up a HTML website.  Remember, which ever type of website you choose, it must be hosted on a server.  Check out some recommended hosting accounts on our “Cool websites to check out” page.  Although the videos are very thorough, if anyone needs help or has a question about something, please contact us, or post a message in the forum.  Enjoy.
